[OoC: Yes Jermlaine are considered pests. And Toot has a Charisma of 7 so he isn't suppose to be sweet and lovable. So I hope there will be bonus xp for playing Toot so thoroughly well!

Toot slowly narrows his eyes at Kiera and then replies, "If such easy thing to jump into water that could have beasts which could eat you then why not you do it? But before you do, shrink self down to tasty morsel size (like Toot) with very little strength to resist current. Then tether self to animal to be dragged along hoping not get attacked because if you attacked, you tethered in water and will likely drown. Also have no spells prepared so can breath under water if attacked so can defend self. Interested??"
"Kiera may be annoyed by Toot but Toot very wise and Toot doesn't just jump into dangerous situations that could shorten Toot's life. Too many of my kind squashed "accidentally" by predigest and careless big folk. If quest important then Toot's assured survival should matter to Kiera! Kiera should have prepared Water Breathing for Toot and Boo."
Toot takes a moment to consider taking the Bullette route. Jermlaine hated bathing so much that fighting the monsters might be preferable. But if he did they would more likely be injured going that way than the uncertainty of drowning. Toot also had the option of turning into an animal adept at swimming. It was looking like having to bathe was going to be the best option. At least there wouldn't be any soap. Blech!!
If Kiera had not already given him the magic items, Toot will hold out hand and curtly say, "Magic?"
When he has all the items she promised, Toot takes out the rope and ties it around his own waist and then around Boo's waist. He will take the time [Take 20] to tie it securely but not tight enough to cause either of them any discomfort or difficulty in swimming. The excess will be wrapped around both of their waists to be extra secure. If the string is like a strong twine that looks like it would be difficult to break with someone Toot's weight being dragged through water then he might use it instead. As it can be cut into smaller pieces so there is less slack.
Once finished, Toot looks up at Kiera and asks, "Is there anything else Toot needs to know?"
